The Schumacher Society Library, home to a number of special collections and archives, was established in 1990 to meet the growing need for a research center to steward the rich tradition of decentralism and community economics. Housed in South Egremont, Massachusetts, the library has grown to over 15,000 volumes of unique materials that explore the viability of ecologically and socially responsible societies. Researchers and community activists visiting this collection have been led directly to the historical, philosophical, and literary building blocks they need to shape a new economics built on the ideal of human scale.
